Confirmation and invoicing in ERP
How will the Confirmation/GR and Invoicing happen from SUS->EBP->ERP? (i.e the Conf/Invoice will be made by supplier in SUS -> received and approved in EBP and now how are postings going to happen in ERP?)

Assumptions :

1)We have activated Extended Classic scenario for product categories with BAdI : BBP_EXTLOCPO_BADI, so the system sends the display copy of PO to the backend for the particular product categories which are included in this BAdI.

2) We are going to send this PO to SUS.

As you might be aware, in the Extended Classic Scenario Implementation, all purchase orders are created in SRM. When SUS is implemented and the vendor settings enable the PO to be transferred to SUS via the XI layer, all communication thereafter (PO Confirmation, Invoice, etc) is only between SUS and the EBP system for those business partners. In the standard solution, this is the only supported behavior.

If you need to send the GR and Invoice to SAP R/3(ERP) so that AP functions can be subsequently performed there, you will need to do custom development in the areas of BADIs and the XI layer configuration.
